American Imperialism essay

It all started in the 1840’s. America was hungry for more land and more power. They wanted to expand their country. And it was led by the idea of President James K. Polk’s belief in the “Manifest destiny”. They believed the settlers of the united states were destined to expand across North America to spread the ways of the Anglo-Saxon civilization to inferior states populated by inferior peoples. America had already gotten Texas from Mexico in 1836 and they offered Mexico 30 million dollars to purchase both California and New Mexico, but they refused to sell. So, then the President picked a fight at the borderline of texas with the Mexicans and this fight led him to officially declare war against Mexico. After 2 years of fighting Mexico lost, and in the treaty of Guadalupe hidalgo they gave up 1/3 of their country to America. The Mexicans would later feel the impact of their land not being governed by Mexico anymore but by the U.S.A.
